After various attempts, the bug happens when the main thread exits with
pthread_exit while other threads exist in the process. It was already
there in 2.5.6 at least, but we did not see it with rtcansend because
there was no other thread than the main thread, while in 2.6.0, there is
now the rt_print thread running.
